Claims15
An electronic device comprising:
- a first operation unit including a touch operation surface on which a touch operation and a slide operation are performed;
- a touch detection surface placed inside the touch operation surface and configured to detect the touch operation;
- and
- a gripping portion configured to be held by a user,
- wherein the touch detection surface is divided into at least two detection surfaces including a first detection surface to an N-th detection surface in order from a side distant from the gripping portion in a direction of the slide operation,
- wherein the gripping portion is provided the closest to the N-th detection surface among the at least two touch detection surfaces in the direction of the slide operation,
- wherein the touch operation surface includes a first operation surface, and a second operation surface provided on an outer edge of the first operation surface,
- wherein the first and second operation surfaces are different from each other in at least one of amount of protrusion, texture, and color, and
- wherein the first detection surface is provided over the second operation surface provided on the outer edge of the first operation surface on the side distant from the gripping portion.
